The people that read this I may or may not talk to, but it doesn't matter.
so
I'm really determined to be a cardiovascular surgeon. I've gone back and forth between career goals and lifestyles...physician or pharmacist? workaholic or part-time mom? thinking way into the future and all that intense shit. but now I realize that all else aside, i really just want to get all up in peoples' thoaracic cavities and save their lives =) Simple (or more likely complicated) as that.
Aside from it making major, ridiculous bank, I can truthfully imagine myself performing surgery and getting up for work each morning ready to face the challenges. It would be fast paced, stressful, and unforgiving, obviously the most simple mistake could end a life. but it would also be immensely rewarding, interesting, and serve as one of the most important services to another human being. i really want to do this, and i think i can.
i am so amazed by the prospect of the future, and i'm more than ready to pave the way at U of A next semester.
oh, and when Ashley is in sports medicine and traveling with hot shot football teams and I am buried in more work than I can handle, it has been decided that I will buy her a Range Rover =) Just because.
Beautiful
